What is an AED?
An automated external defibrillator, or AED, is a portable device used to help someone experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. It analyzes the person's heart rhythm and, when appropriate, delivers a shock to help restore a normal rhythm.
AEDs provide clear voice and visual prompts throughout the process. Training is recommended and can build confidence, but the device is designed to guide a responder step by step.
In an emergency
- Call 911 and ask someone to get the nearest AED.
- Begin CPR if the person is not breathing normally.
- Turn on the AED and follow every prompt.
